editI do not see at all how the one in Guatemala is even considered a replica. This article should make a clear distinction between actual replicas and those towers similar (or deriving inspiration from). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.242.160.1 (talk) 18:01, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
I drove by the Dreyfuss Eiffel Tower in Austin the other day and it was gone. The shop was closed. I don't know where it's moved to.
There's one in Prague! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.117.60.181 (talk) 15:56, 7 June 2012 (UTC) The one in Prague - I was missing tht one too - is on the Petrin-hill, on the east side of Prague. From the city it looks huge because it's built on a hill, it is rather small: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pet%C5%99%C3%ADn_Lookout_Tower — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.57.121.85 (talk) 08:48, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
Tecgl (talk) 04:16, 25 October 2013 (UTC)== some on the list not replicas ==
For example, of the full and half scale "replicas", only one, the Las Vegas tower, is a replica. The chinese tower in Harbin is round with no such legs as in Eiffel tower. Nagoya and Berlin towers seem more like they are a replica of the top half of the original. Tokyo Tower's article says this: The structure is an Eiffel Tower-inspired lattice tower.
From replica article: A replica is an exact reproduction, which many of these on the list are not. 85.217.22.25 (talk) 08:36, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
I agree with the above. In fact, most of the towers have only a passing resemblance to the Eiffel tower and are clearly not replicas. A very poor article in my opinion. Tecgl (talk)
- It is good to have them too here. But, the list should be split into two: a "replicas" list and an "inspired by" list. 21:26, 22 December 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.141.67.208 (talk)
There is also a small version of tower in Paryž in Belarus(Paris in belarusian is Paryž). - Melilac (talk) 09:47, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
Berlin
editThere's a small version in front of Centre Francais Berlin, located in Müllerstraße 74, 13349 Berlin, Germany. Martinwilke1980 (talk) 22:22, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
Seoul
editThere is one in Seoul in the Aiins World Park https://kidsfuninseoul.wordpress.com/2013/09/13/aiins-world-park/ It can be seen in the movie "Love Forecast" (Oneului Yeonae, 2015) near 1:24:50 70.53.60.158 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 03:52, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

Montreal
editThe Mount Royal Cross is a weird hybrid between the Eiffel Tower and a cross. http://montrealinpictures.com/blog/2012/11/08/project-365-day-313-mount-royal-cross-at-night/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Revstate (talk • contribs) 13:46, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Possible new replica (although height is unknown)
editTegucigalpa, Honduras, It's the facade of a gated community. Seen here. This to prove that while one may not have the energy to be bold and add it to the main article, the talk page is less strict. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pier4r (talk • contribs) 18:28, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
replicas or...? ==
editThere reads: "The Eiffel Tower has also inspired other towers that are not close resembling replicas and therefore not listed here, for example the Blackpool Tower." That is not true. The list has some that look even less like Eiffel Tower, such as Dragon Tower and Petřín Lookout Tower. And the demolished New Brighton Tower looks quite the same than Blackpool Tower, except it seems it had round shape... 46.132.53.179 (talk) 13:18, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
